In 2016 I wrote an article for Pro(c) magazine (RIP) about the process I went through to find Randy Glover, creator of the best game for the best computer (Jumpman on the Atari 8-bit). I'm not sure they ever published it. Here is Finding Randy, online for the first time. archive.org/details/save...

This issue is notable for an Atari BASIC program, written by Tom Hudson, that displays 3D graphics. Two years later, Hudson would release Cyber Studio CAD-3D for Atari ST, and a few years after that, it was reborn as 3D Studio for DOS, and finally, the ubiquitous 3DS MAX.

Took off from San Jose, California, United States.
Design and product leadership at apple is lacking as of late.
Vim tips: Use splits for days as needed, adjust with mouse. "*y and "*p for copy and paste to/from terminal. The ":earlier 1f" command saves your butt if you have an open file and have made too many changes and got lost, or the cat jumped on your keyboard and hosed it all (previously-saved version).
Regarding the term setup, I use the OSX terminal dark palette from the solarized repo and 18pt Operator Mono Book Nerd Font complete (old eyes) and it shines when on my vertical external display for code.
...
I have a custom cursor definition in my vimrc for color (solarized bright magenta, so visual selections stand out) and shape β vertical bar for insert mode and block for normal mode.
...
Things that aren't apparent: I set my shiftwidth to 2 for html usually for ease of reading. I turn off matchparen because it's annoying. I make the comments italicized: highlight Comment cterm=italic gui=italic
...
I run vim in mac standard terminal (with mouse support turned ON). In that screenshot you'll notice Solarized Dark colorscheme (though you can switch to light), Powerline, Operator mono nerd font (with italics), and the scrollbar plugin. I tried minimap but it was distracting.
...
Yes! New mac setup day is my favoritest of days! I'm happy for you. As far as my cozy dev setup, I teased it in my recent masto post about my environment oldbytes.space/@0xC0FFEE/11...

@ironsiderecords.bsky.social got any KLF/JAMMs? Or TMBG?
With the keyboard working, now many other things work, including the GoodNeWS environment and the PSIBER
